Why does Mathematica Copy TeX formulas in reverse order? Global fixes?

Posted 8 years ago

So, if I copy a formula on Mathematica as LaTeX (TeX) format.
I go to paste it into my external LaTeX compiler and the order of the equations is in reverse!

Example: Mathematica formula is X = 2 + 3 + 5

**Copy as LateX** (then paste it)
*I get back this:*
$5 + 3 + 2 = X$

Which renders $5 + 3 + 2 = X $

When what I truly want is to paste TeX in this form: $X = 2+ 3 + 5$

Is there a way to change this format of TeX output and apply it as a GLOBAL setting in Mathematica 11?

Thank You,

Michael.

I wonder which version you are using, since in ver. 11 is copies and pastes fine

Try something like this:

In[13]:= TeXForm[HoldForm[x = 2 + 3 + 5]]

Out[13]//TeXForm=
x=2+3+5
